Mageco MIDI interface

This is the right place to discuss on how to implement hardware vsync, adding a VIA or AY chipset, puting multiple roms, or how to design a new flash expansion card.

And there's a project to make a midi box with a raspberry pi (see for instance https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.instru ... _page=true)

Hi all!
Some news about the #Oricon project:



The project goes bit slower that I wish bit it's already in the final phase! :D
I'm preparing lot of stuff for the hardware - demos, source code for diagnostics and communication programs.
The best is that everything works just fine!

You can see the xmodem transfer protocol and there is an updated version of my #OTRM (Oric terminal) program!
And more is on the way :).

Oric has a mouse and it works perfectly!
The feeling is just like any other 'normal' computer with mouse :lol:

Actually, the perfect program would be to patch Lorigraph, it's already completely driven by the use of a cursor, replacing the keyboard handling my the actual mouse would make it very usable!

In production :!:
All parts and PCB's are on my desk and the first batch is being cooked but things go slower than I want mainly because of the hand soldering of those tiny SMD components but also lot other interesting challenges distract me - one of this moments when I want to clone me :lol:
